Remembering Martin Luther King Jr.

I wish that we had more people like him in this world. Because violence is not the answer to solving problems. Who was it that said actions speak louder than words. In this case it’s not true, words actually speak louder than your actions. Try it sometime you might even like it.

“Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream was a manifestation of hope that humanity might one day get out of its own way by finding the courage to realize that love and nonviolence are not indicators of weakness but gifts of significant strength.”― Aberjhani, Illuminated Corners: Collected Essays and Articles Volume I.

A Baptist minister and social activist, Martin Luther King Jr. played a key role in the American civil rights movement from the mid-1950s until his assassination in 1968. Inspired by advocates of nonviolence such as Mahatma Gandhi, King sought equality for African Americans, the economically disadvantaged, and victims of injustice through peaceful protest. He was the driving force behind history making events such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the March on Washington, which helped bring about such landmark legislation as the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
